A Unique Slant of Light: The Bicentennial History of Art in Louisiana - (Page 290)

Geometry of Night, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1992 Photograph Collection of John Lawrence 290 ART IN CONTEMPORARY LOUISIANA JOHN H. LAWRENCE b. 1953, New Orleans, Louisiana As a photographer and curator, John H. Lawrence has played a major role in the New Orleans photographic community for more than thirty years. The photographer’s early exposure to modernism by his architect father John W. Lawrence, dean of the Tulane School of Architecture from 1959 to 1971, can be seen in his formal, sharply focused, and meticulously composed images. Many of his photographs transform ordinary scenes into pictures of “compelling art by exquisite framing,” as critic Doug MacCash noted. Lawrence’s photographs, which have been widely exhibited in galleries in New Orleans and throughout the United States, portray urban architecture, interiors, cemeteries, and stark landscapes photographed in black and white.
